Hunt for Charlie Hebdo gunmen as 'killers' are revealed to be brothers 'trained in Yemen as assassins'

Raid

Cherif Kouachi (left), 32, and Said Kouachi (right), 34, both from Paris, were identified as suspects in the attack along with Hamyd Mourad, 18, from the north-eastern city of Reims.
Mourad surrendered to police last night 'after seeing his name circulating on social media' and was arrested, according to a source close to the case. It appeared last night that the hunt for the other men had turned to the Croix Rouge region of Reims, some two hours by car from Paris. Dozens of members from France's elite anti-terror unit surrounded an apartment building (main image) and there were reports a flat had been searched. Some 100,000 people gathered across France last night to back the publication, Charlie Hebdo, as a huge manhunt was launched to find the attackers. The suspected Al Qaeda militants massacred 12 people in Paris yesterday, and among those slaughtered was a police officer as he begged for mercy (inset).
